Best frame for Woburn?
I currently have a Viper Fugitif Carbon and am thinking of changing her! Not sure which would be best suited to the sort of riding over Woburn!!
My shortlist is the Trek Fuel EX8, Santacruz Superlight, Blur LT or the Yeti AS-R SL??
I'm also open to suggestions if anyone thinks i'm missing I right cracker!!!

Yeah was thinking off single speeding me Scale 40 frame I have but had a major off on the hardtail which is why I went down the bouncer route!!! Don't heal like I did when I was 18!!!

Why is a Full Bouncer different for falling off?

Knew someone would pipe up with that!!!
It's not, more a confidence and psycological thing!!!
The fact that a bouncer takes the hits better than a hardtail from my dodgy line picking helps!!!

Cheers for the help guys!! Ended up buying a virtually brand new EX9 for £1500!! Had to swap some bits of the Viper as I weren't keen on some of the bits on the Trek!!!
